storm about 1000 persons occupied
their seats, but were driven to Repre-
sentative Hall by the rain at 2 o'clock.
At this point the committee determ
ined to remove the demonstration to
the shelter of the Statehouse, and the
crowd surged and pressed for entrance
to the Assembly Chamber. In short
time 1000 people crowded into the
galleries, capable ordinarily OF holding
only 800, and the more favored, to the
number Of 1900, were admitted to the
floor OF the House.
As Senator Sherman, accompanied
by Gov. Oglesby, Senators Onllom and
Farwell, the State officers and the
members of the managing committee
entered the hall, at $40 o'clock, there
was loud and continued applause.
Senator Sherman was introduced by

2:bO o'clock.
